VILLE LEINO NEWS FEED

BOSTON -- The Boston Bruins will host the Washington Capitals in a preseason game Wednesday night at TD Garden. The Bruins dropped their first preseason game to the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night at Bell Centre in Montreal, 3-2.

Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli announced the team has invited veteran forward and former Buffalo Sabre Ville Leino to training camp. Leino, 30, played only 58 games for the Sabres last season and was held scoreless with 15 assists and a minus-16 rating.

The New York Islanders were aggressive in trading for the rights to blueliner Dan Boyle, but after failing to get his signature on a contract, the NHL club is now shopping him before he walks away as an unrestricted free agent.

Three NHL players -- Buffalo's' Ville Leino, Vancouver's' David Booth and Dallas' Aaron Rome -- have been placed on waivers Tuesday with the intention of being bought out by their respective teams, sources confirmed to ESPN.com.
